Reduced Reference Quality Assessment for Image Retargeting by Earth Mover’s Distance
A reduced reference quality assessment algorithm for image retargeting by earth mover’s distance is proposed in this paper. In the reference image, all the feature points are extracted using scale invariant feature transform.

BERT-EMD: Many-to-Many Layer Mapping for BERT Compression with Earth Mover’s Distance [PDF]
Pre-trained language models (e.g., BERT) have achieved significant success in various natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However, high storage and computational costs obstruct pre-trained language models to be effectively deployed on resource ...

DeepFace-EMD: Re-ranking Using Patch-wise Earth Mover's Distance Improves Out-Of-Distribution Face Identification [PDF]
Face identification (FI) is ubiquitous and drives many high-stake decisions made by the law enforcement. A common FI approach compares two images by taking the cosine similarity between their image embeddings.

In this paper, we address the few-shot classification task from a new perspective of optimal matching between image regions. We adopt the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) as a metric to compute a structural distance between dense image representations to ...

Earth Mover’s Distance-Based Tool for Rapid Screening of Cervical Cancer Using Cervigrams
Cervical cancer is a major public health challenge that can be cured with early diagnosis and timely treatment. This challenge formed the rationale behind our design and development of an intelligent and robust image analysis and diagnostic tool/scale ...

Testing Distributions of Huge Objects [PDF]
We initiate a study of a new model of property testing that is a hybrid of testing properties of distributions and testing properties of strings. Specifically, the new model refers to testing properties of distributions, but these are distributions over ...

Approximate Earth Mover’s Distance in Truly-Subquadratic Time [PDF]
We design an additive approximation scheme for estimating the cost of the min-weight bipartite matching problem: given a bipartite graph with non-negative edge costs and ε > 0, our algorithm estimates the cost of matching all but O(ε)-fraction of the ...
